Thread regarding Global Payments Inc. layoffs

To the Naysayers & Individuals Seeking Clarity...

All the "wheres your proof" comments I see in these threads are most likely representatives from McKinsey or Leaders within GP. They want you to slip-up, so they can identify you, be CAUTIOUS and calculated with what you share here.

Newsflash to the suspected Leaders and or representatives of McKinsey in the comment sections... You posted your "Lay-off" plans in Wave... The majority of individuals granted access to this system can simply search it within the application you gave them, keep up the good work, it's examples such as this that only affirm the comments from peers about your incompetance.

To those unaware or uninformed, perhaps you can see for yourself in Wave, assuming you have access. If not I'm sure someone reading this, who has access and checks will validate in the comments...

It's focused on Operations starting in May, with intent to wrap up the plan before Q3 2025. The intent of the re-org in 2024 was to avoid scaring those who have not realized that our company is at HIGH-risk for failure, sure some efficiency gains and things as well, but the uninformed and or unaware will cheer as you walk them off a cliff, an informed population will fight back.

No one blinks when it's an "Ops" riff because historically that meant frontline teams in the call center. Check out our Leadership maps in our payroll systems, you might find you're in scope of this riff. Take action, protect yourself and your families, start saving money, and hope you're not impacted. Regardless if impacted or not, consider that you may be in the next one that follows soon after, realize that you are a number not a human being, stop supporting an organization that could care less if you live or die tomorrow, or if you and or your families go without food, water, or shelter.

Thank you, to all the amazing people within the company blowing whistles and trying to prepare those of us who are unaware of uninformed. Makes me proud seeing so many of you, keep fighting for the right thing, don't let your resolve be broken by those who have lost their humanity.

McKinsey locked down the WAVE items showing the initiative. Set to private.
SVPs should have been given a list this week.

Something is definitely amiss. I do not understand what we are doing as a company. Turbulent times are ahead of us.

There's enough information shared here and clues I've picked up through my normal work to believe that this is more than a rumor and the RIF will likely occur around this timeline (unless they purposely push it back). Also our stocks doing bad compare to Fiserv. Just see last 5 years. guess Cameron's definitely going to be under some pressure the next few Qs and before he goes out, he'll try to do whatever he can.

Sharing of this info is simply a warning to fellow colleagues who may not be as privileged. It's strictly individual's choice on whether they want to heed to it or not. Don't think OP has to prove anything.

p.s. could sharing of proof put someone's job in danger? Possibly if it wasn't already through RIF. maybe image metadata can be tracked or retrieved.

I have worked for Heartland for many many years. Brick by brick GP has torn us down. Bob would never have taken away things like our porfolios or daycare facilities. Good people were sent packing in August and more of us know we are on the block in a few weeks. Much like they did with tsys, they tried to fix what wasn't broke. Knowledge gone, culture gone, product gone or soon will be. I get change is inevitable but when you spend as much time as I have building relationships, let alone a career, knowing what is coming
hurts. I encourage you to ask your VP's and senior managers to share what they know. Granted not everyone is aware but higher ups certainly are . If you are one of the lucky ones making it through this cr-p, remember who was honest with you The positions being cut have already been decided. I am tired of going home each night with this stress. Just be honest with us.

I worked for TSYS for over 20yrs. I saw the writing and jumped ship before they had the opportunity to include me in a RIF.

TSYS may exist on paystubs, W2's and signs on the building, but the TSYS corporate culture that I went to work for, DOES NOT EXIST!

I feel for the individuals that can't see that or have not been there long enough to know.

So sad to see the demise of such a great company!!

Gp employee of 13 years here. I see a lot of comments mentioning tsys isn't the same anymore. Heartland isn't the same anymore.

Well let me tell you this is not the same GP as a few years ago neither.

No one doubting that TSYS has changed but to say “it doesn’t exist” when someone says they are a TSYS employee is asinine. And yet again, if someone can’t see beyond the literal meaning of that statement, well then, you see why our company is in a world of hurt with employees that are so d-mb.

You know I worked for TSYS for 17 yrs and got laid off in the last big RIF in august. While the name TSYS still exist on everything, the company itself has changed to reflect the decision making of the current leaders and their values. Using the name and logo of what was a good solid company to re-brand the chaos might be some strategy of deception, as this is the current intent I am seeing in the conduct of these current leaders. Speaking as a former 17 yr employee dating all the way back to phil Tomlinson days, it definitely DOES NOT reflect his values. I met him in person several times working there and he always stopped to talk to me (I was 23 at the time) and just his personality alone reflected his values. He really cared about people and ran the company as such. I find in the current leadership--just in the fact they hired a corrupt company like Mckinsey-- the kind of values I sure would not want to be associated with. Even before I left, people walked around in fear, anxiety and constant worry. When employees are suffering emotionally, psychologically and mentally, it is a reflection of bad leadership all around. They know deep down inside they are not being well cared for or appreciated and at anytime, their lives, like mine, could turn upside down. I even had to relocate to Atlanta. TSYS became non-existent from the time Patty Watson walked in the door after Phil retired. It was all a money grab from there, and it still is. Once these new leaders and Mckinsey squeezes TSYS, and the citizens of Columbus for every penny they can get, they will jump ship and leave you all hanging. That is the kind of people you are dealing with. So No. it is no longer TSYS !!! Not the way I remember it from the early 2000s. Sure some of the lower level and mid level managers are holding on to what they can from the TSYS culture and leading their teams with those old values, but it will all slip away eventually as they continue to chip away from what little is left. I miss TSYS and if it was still TSYS, I would come back in a heart beat, but it is no longer TSYS, and I frankly I cannot live in fear and anxiety everyday like that.

Dude…there is a search bar. Put some key terms in there relating to lay offs and you get the results you need.

Also - in WAVE there are
3662 initiatives
16259 milestones

Are you saying you have enough time on your hand to look through all of these and determine that there are layoffs coming?
My team is busy and we certainly don’t have time to poke around over 3000 lines of initiatives to find something that points to layoffs.

OP, you still haven’t proven anything. Do you have access to Wave?

“TSYS doesn’t exist anymore”
No kidding. I guess you’ve been drinking the McKinsey kool aid extra heavy and buy into the whole “we’re ONE GP” cr-p.

My email address is still @tsys.com
My W2 employer is still TSYS.
Is the TSYS brand still all over the company? Yes.
So - if you’re stupid enough to not understand that I am an employee who worked for TSYS and still supports many “legacy TSYS” functions - then you’re absolute proof of why the company is failing.

And as for asking for proof? It’s not about laziness or lack of being able to go look in WAVE myself. I’ve got access. I’ll check it out. But what it sounds like is OP saw some “initiative” for Ops re-org and immediately assumes that = layoffs. So I’d like to see what they saw in WAVE that explicitly says layoffs or RIF.

Again, I’m not doubting a RIF is coming. I have zero faith in McKinsey and GP leadership. All I’ve asked is for evidence that people posting on this site are legit and not just coming here to stir things up. If you’re still employed and your workload is anything like mine, you don’t have time to go fact check every rumor you hear.

Post from TheLayoff.com

It's odd you think Tsys doesn't exist. You probably think Heartland or Evo or AdvancedMD or Netspend seized to exist too. Odd how some have already been sold off and others still may be. All brands continue to exist as if, including email, culture, etc.

So many examples here on why RIFs occur.People want info handed to them instead of just putting in effort to find it in Wave themselves.

Tsys does not exist anymore. It is odd you are referring to yourself a tsys employee.

Can you upload some images to imgur or something and post the links here? Obviously with anything even close to identifying you censored out.

Not a McKinsey or GP employee.
TSYS employee here. Still, show me what you’ve got otherwise it’s all just a rumor.
